I am fairly shocked, I couldn't believe it when I read she had died. I mean I know she had her share of troubles but I thought she was doing better in recent years?? I feel awful for her poor daughter, especially since the media will probably be focusing a lot on her troubles instead of the good things she accomplished.

Such a shame to see someone with so much talent appear to be so troubled, powerful voices like that don't come around very often. So weird that it happened the night before the Grammy's. I enjoyed her older music but wasn't a super-big fan or anything. My heart goes out to her fans and family but mostly for her daughter, she's only like 18/19.

I was flipping through the channels when I landed on Fox News' report on her death. Even though I wasn't a huge fan of her's growing up--I still believe that she is one of the most important and influential woman in American music history. And I do mean that.

New details have been revealed in the death of singer Whitney Houston, who passed away at the age of 48 on Saturday (February 11).

The singer was found unresponsive in her hotel room at the Beverly Hilton Hotel by a member of her entourage. Paramedics were called and they tried to perform CPR on her, but it did not work and she was pronounced dead at 3:55PM PST, according to TMZ.

Whitney was to attend Clive Davis‘ annual party at the Beverly Hilton Hotel this evening. TMZ also reports that Whitney had spoken to her cousin Dionne Warwick and mother Cissy Houston just before her death about attending the party and that everything seemed fine.

While there have been no signs of foul play, a full investigation into Whitney‘s death has begun.
